7 reasons why guttering is more than just a decoration

We know that cleaning your guttering does not sound like the most appealing way to spend a Saturday afternoon, especially at this time of year, but we cannot stress the importance of properly maintaining your guttering. Well maintained guttering can help to:

• - Stop your gutters from being overwhelmed during heavy rain showers
• - Enhance the selling potential of your property
• - Ensure rain water drains away from your property efficiently
• - Stop water from penetrating your sofits and entering your property
• - Avoid costly repair bills resulting from blocked or poorly maintained guttering
• - Keep insurance bills low
• - Reduce the risk of trapped water freezing in and damaging your gutters

These problems could lead to a costly repair bill, so it is far better to take the time to clean and maintain your guttering to avoid any problems further down the line.
